I was also wondering if anyone could give me like samples of a Rush Week, like what events each day. I am trying to sort out all this stuff over the summer so it can be planned before we get back.

Also, I spoke to a recruitment chair/dop/rush chair (whatever you want to call her) and she thinks a rush week would be a good idea. I'm so excited.

Here's an example:

*Monday: Informational -Iced Tea (informal)
Give the girls a rundown of the week, handout necessary paperwork, etc. Explain requirements, etc. Mingle!

*Tuesday: Card Party/Pool Tournament

*Wednesday: Service Day
Here you can have cool community service project for girls to get to know you guys.

*Thursday: ZLPsi Spa Day (can be invite only)
You can get cheap spa day kits from Target, and have a night of papmering while girls get to meet you guys.

*Friday: Dressy Dessert Night-INVITE ONLY
You can make this one invite only if you want. Based on rush apps. or whatever methods you use, you can select the girls you want to see back on this night.

You may also want to go into more detail about pledging, expectations, fees, etc.

*Saturday: Zeta Day-INVITE ONLY
Your invited girls can be interviewed on this special night. You guys can have a slide show or everyone can bring in 3 Zeta items of theirs (hoodie,picture,jacket) and explain it's significance to them.

*Sunday: Bid/Pledge Night
You let the girls know whether they've been selected as pledges or not. For the ones you chose you can do some thing fun like a pledge movie night or something.


Also since it's rush week, make sure all of the girls know that at the end of the week, invites will be extended, and give deadlines for grades,paperwork, etc.

You can also make a certain # of the open events mandatory if they are to be considered, and remind the rushees to get to know as many actives as they can.

You should remind them that the Fri.,Sat., and Sun. events are by invite only.

Well, I had too much fun w/ this! Hope I helped.
